American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
很好，讲了我也想讲的故事。一直在给主人公做选择的机会，所以很揪心，结局留下一个烟头的印记，浅显也取巧，时长上注定少了深度，不过值得扩充，做成剧我一定追。
挺不错的。影帝带新人的稳定发挥。
“找到答案固然重要，但知道问题是什么更重要，你不能从错误的问题中得到正确的答案。”数学的尽头没有数字。
若《浮俘》的渔民苦力尚是被遮掩的奴役，尚有对错之分、渔民的反戈一击存在“正当防卫”的合理性，《七囚徒》则是光明正大地拐卖人口，是《用后即弃的人》的所言及的“新奴隶制”，以致于男主角最终决定投诚，我们会认为是一个正确的决定，我们很快被这种经济、权力地位的提升所鼓舞，庆幸可以从第一视角感知人生的阶层跨越、焕然一新，所以我们会快乐，替男主松口气，却忘记铁门后眼巴巴被囚禁的其他人。这也是金钱至上的价值观反复驯化的结果，导演让观众变成小丑，一步一步成为恶的帮凶，放弃正义、善，并声称“不得已”。糟糕的人情社会中，连恶势力都会成为参政议员高升的靠山，而恶势力掌握的则是底层没有机会出人投地的劳动力，因为他们拥有合法的枪支。底层从黑社会体系中以暴力、以服膺获取升迁进而洗白，竟成了唯一出路，令人倍感惊悚。
还有一点。不要自怜！！！！！
大鱼吃小鱼，小鱼吃虾米，奴隶和人贩子共情？其实这是一个关于选择的故事。男主时不时跳出来的道德感让我恶心，但你不能不说电影足够写实。从处女作“苏格拉底”就能感受到这个导演追求纪录的影像风格，难得的是连上一部的主演都保留了，真长情啊...
-努力的人是第二个放弃的
啥呀这是 还等着看 完美出逃呢 咋挣扎半天还沦陷了呢 别那么现实好吗 ！
前1个小时挺好的 涉及到南北问题就绷不住了
不忘初心，牢记使命！
我想，我对数学，数字的一切热爱就是从高中被开始剥夺的吧。
意义好像很大，但是电影很难看。。。
工整的电影，数学为载体的温暖故事。教育是灵魂点亮另一个灵魂的事，里面混杂了很多对应试教育的观点，整体很温暖。
我跟着马图斯一起挣扎，每当我觉得有机会救出劳工，他就会把兄弟们推得更远，但我其实总觉得他良心未泯，电影里没有充足的理由去说服我他最后的转变。
崔岷植真的是演啥像啥 我以为他一直都是那个老男孩 没想到他也可以是数学家
上学一直认为数学是“男”的、其实她是柔和包容的“女”性。寒国影视工业真是成熟了
置入广告太多了，老是出戏。
三星半，故事讲的一般，最后的演讲算是有点尬住，反派老师还可以再没脑子一点吗？前面还是有不少浪漫的idea的，但就是教授和男主的人设及关系没有立实，所以结尾有点尬。
展示了一个更复杂的食物链，见识过巨大机器的运转以后，即使举起枪也没有自由。
